Bloody Moon was a Space Marine of the Dark Angels chapter, where he assumed the name Paulo. He fought Chaos Space Marines on the Space Hulk Prison of Lost Souls and became a member of the First Company, under Captain Cloud Runner.[1]

On a visit to his homeworld, he discovered it had been enslaved by a Genestealer Cult. While his brothers debated how to respond, Bloody Moon warned them of his experiences on the Prison of Los Souls — that the road to perdition begins with small steps, as shown by their traitor brethren. He advocated a landing on the planet to combat the Genestealers, instead of awaiting the ordered Exterminatus of the planet.[1]

Bloody Moon's arguments won out, he accompanied the landing party. He died in the following battle, which led to the creation of the Deathwing.[1]

Due to this concern, that of not accomplishing the ordered Exterminatus of the planet, the Dark Angels would be turning away from the Emperor, he finally voted for the fight against the Genestealers. He died in the following battle that caused the creation of the Deathwing.[1]
